Chapter 8 Living with Jinx


Chapter 8 Living with Jinx

In the early morning, Li Ke felt itching on his face. He reached out and patted his face a few times. Li Ke moved his body and went back to sleep.

"Hee."

But when a silver bell-like laughter came to his ears, Li Ke immediately opened his eyes.

Looking to the side, Li Ke saw Jinx holding her chin with one hand and sweeping a tuft of blue hair across Li Ke's face with her other hand. She held the hair and swept it towards Li Ke's nose. .

Seeing this, Li Ke reached out and brushed Jinx's hair away. He looked at her and said softly, "When did our relationship become so good?"

Jinx pulled her hair back and said casually: "Our relationship has always been so good, hasn't it? You gave me candy when I was little."

"Is there such a thing again?" Li Ke really couldn't remember. He stood up and rubbed his face.

With his adaptability fully developed, he was able to accept time travel, Golden Finger, and being missed by Thresh the day before yesterday, so it doesn't seem strange that he can now accept sleeping in the same bed as the underworld's crazy little daughter?

After all, compared to being crazy and dangerous, can Jinx be more dangerous than Thresh?

Of course it’s impossible

Jinx said seriously: "Yes, I remember it very clearly."

"Also, Li Ke, it's time for you to get up. I'm hungry." Jinx then said to Li Ke.

"So?"

"So you go buy me food, I have no money." Jinx said.

"I don't have much money either." Li Ke replied.

The money Marson left him was only enough to feed him for a few days, but now that Jinx was included, it would be spent in less than two days.

"Okay, then I'm going to get the money? Don't worry, I know how to get the money the fastest." Jinx took out the gun and flicked the trigger with her finger. Li Ke looked really worried that it might go off.

Thinking of Jinx's methods of making money, Li Ke sighed.

Whether it's Jinx or Vi, there are usually only three ways for people in Zaun to make money. One is to work honestly for the Pixies and earn some hard-earned money from them, and the other is to form a group to skin them. He would steal something from his home and sell it, and the last one was the most primitive and violent way.

Obviously, Jinx’s way of making money is the third way.

"I know, I'll get the food, you wait for me here." Li Ke stood up, took off the coat on the side, and then put it on.

Jinx lay down on the bed again. Hearing the sound, she raised her legs and supported her thin waist on the bed with both hands. Her movements seemed to indicate that Li Ke had heard it.

Li Ke didn't say much, turned around and pushed the door open.

————

On the way to the restaurant, Li Ke saw many gangsters along the way. Looking at them and thinking of Jinx lying on his bed, Li Ke felt helpless.

What would happen to Silko if he knew Jinx was lying on his bed?

Hmm.

The best-case scenario is probably to be shot to death, and the worst-case scenario is to be sent by Silko to catch sharks?

Li Ke has no doubt about this.

Although when he watched the Battle of Two Cities, he felt that Hilko was very charming and liked him quite a lot, but when he really came to Zaun and had the memory of it, Li Ke knew that Hilko brought him to Zaun. Something is coming.

In Zaun, which was ruled by violence, the people at the bottom felt both fear and hatred towards Silko, and there was no sense of gratitude at all.

To put it bluntly, even if Zaun in the future really becomes independent under the leadership of Silko, how can the pain of the Zaun people who are suffering at the moment be relieved?

If you only look at the results without looking at the process, you will often lose a lot of things.

Because of this, Li Ke sometimes really feels that it would be great if Hilko and Fandel can be integrated together. In that case, Zaun will definitely become better. Hilko's iron-blooded skills are matched with Fandel's spiritual philosophy. , Zaun will truly unite, instead of what it is now

Reform requires blood and pain, but they are not the ones who pay for it.

"Hey, okay, sir, I haven't eaten in three days."

"Sir, do you want shimmer? It's the latest model. I can guarantee that this thing has no side effects!"

"No! Please don't take my child away!"

The painful voice reached Li Ke's ears. Li Ke turned a blind eye and came to the door of the restaurant, opened the door, went in and ordered two pieces of food.

A piece of boiled Demon Marsh frog leg meat, and a piece of bread mixed with gravel and impurities.

Li Ke returned home with the food. "Wow! Is it the devil's marsh frog leg meat?"

As soon as she entered the door, Jinx arrived in front of Li Ke, leaned over and probed her head. Her little nose moved to smell the smell coming from the lunch box. She raised her head, with a hint of excitement in her bright blue pupils, and Jinx said loudly: " I haven’t eaten this for a long time, how do you know I like this?”

"Hilko won't let me eat these things, saying they are unclean. He often cooks for me himself, but his cooking skills are really not that good." Jinx reached out and grabbed the lunch box, and used two fingers to Tan picked up a piece of leg meat, put it on top of his head, opened his mouth and let go of his hand, and then ate the leg meat.

Li Ke: "."

"As long as you like it, there's some bread here." Li Ke handed over the bread on the side.

"I won't eat that, it's not delicious." Jinx took one look at it and said in disgust.

The bread she eats is all from the upper city. It is soft, delicious and sweet. She does not want to eat this kind of dry and hard bread.

Li Ke didn't care after hearing this. He tore off the bread and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it.

Li Ke swallowed the bread with pieces of wood and mud in his stomach, then looked at Jinx and asked: "How many days do you plan to stay here?"

"You want to drive me away?" Jinx turned her head and looked at Li Ke with a very calm expression.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

But the hand that was eating stopped and his body turned towards Li Ke.

"Forget it, you can stay as long as you want." Li Ke rubbed his cheeks that were sore from chewing bread.

"Okay!" Jinx became happy, reached out to grab the Demon Swamp Frog again, took out a frog leg, and then handed it to Li Ke.

"Eat." She said to Li Ke.

Just as Li Ke was about to reach out and take it, Jinx dodged it, then put her hand in front of Li Ke and looked at Li Ke: "Eat."

Li Ke was stunned and opened his mouth. Jinx reached out and "stuck" it into Li Ke's mouth.

The meat of the Demon Swamp Frog was soft and greasy, with an unspeakable fishy smell and a strange texture. When Li Ke closed his mouth, he touched Jinx's finger.

"It's quite delicious." Li Ke said after swallowing with difficulty.

Jinx smiled broadly.

Li Ke chewed his dry bread again.

Late at night, in the core area of ​​Zaun's Black Alley, this place looks much wealthier than the outskirts of the Black Alley. People gather in the center, including wealthy businessmen wearing top hats, gang members covered with tattoos, and huge In front of the sculpture, people opened their mouths to drink the purple liquid sprayed from the sculpture.

In the center was a tavern. The weird sign at the door was covered with graffiti, making it look like a big bright eye. The Zaun people called it Fulgrim's Tavern.

Passing by the flashing neon lights, restless music, and drunkards smoking and drinking on the first floor, a woman with a mechanical arm on her body and a resolute face walked straight to the restricted second floor of Fulgen's Tavern.

He knocked on the door on the second floor, and after a moment, a deep voice sounded.

"Come in."

Opening the door, the second floor of Forgan's Tavern is covered with all kinds of weird graffiti. Cute blue and pink pictures are painted on the desk, books, cups, and all kinds of things.

On an old chair, a man was sitting quietly, wearing a close-fitting vest and red clothes. His hair was meticulously combed. He was facing away from the woman, holding a mirror and drawing something.

If you look carefully, you will find that he is applying makeup on half of his face in front of the mirror. There are various scars on that half of his face, but with the movements of his hands, those scars are gradually covered and lifted. He raised his hand and faced the mirror behind him. He looked at the mirror with his scarlet eyes. He put down the mirror, reached out to the table, and touched a lighter with two smiling eyes painted on it.

A cigar is put into the mouth and the cigar is lit.

The man turned the chair and placed his hands together on his lower abdomen. He looked extremely elegant.

"Back?"

Hilko said.
